Beckys heart started to Race as she looked down at her wrists. The cold metal of the handcuffs pressed against her skin, making sure that she couldnt pull her hands out. Still she tried it a few times before looking back up at the Magician that tried to give her a reassuring smile. "My lovely volunteer, do you think, you could escape those handcuffs?" he asked more the Audience than her. She tried to reach the keyhole.

"Not even if i had a key." she had to admit much to her dismay. So he grabbed the chain connecting the cuffs and dragged her along to the Edge of the Stage. "If you feel uneasy, i can ask someone else to take your Place." he whispered in her ear. She just shook her head. "No, i wanted to come up her. For better or worse, i have to finish this." came her answer.

And with that did the Magician ask another volunteer to pull on the cuffs, nearly pulling the Girl of the Stage. Thankfully did the Magician grab her shoulders keeping her standing. With the assurance of the Audience that there was no easy way for Becky to free herself from the cuffs, did the Magician pull a cloth from his volunteers pocket.

She watched him unfold the cloth and him placing it over her wrists, to cover the cuffs and the chain. Next, she had to stretch out her arms to put more tension on the Chain. With that did he ask her for a final smile, before the Tricks end. Becky tried to muster up a brave smile as the Magicians hand touched her chin to lift it up a bit. Forcing her to look him in the eyes.

His hand moved down in an instant pulling the cloth with him. Becky raised her arms up in shock, only noticing that her wrists were free, once the audience started to clap. Her eyes darted to the Cuffs in the Magicians hand, who were still closed. "How?" she asked, while inspecting the Red marks still visible on her wrists. "Magic." was the only answer he gave her.

"Now, freeing a lovely girl from a pair of handcuffs, is a rather useful trick in the right circumstances. But in the grand things of a Magic show a bit underwhelming, dont you think?" he asked. she nodded. "So, Becky, would you mind assisting me with another escape trick?" her heart started racing again. "I would love to." she said without thinking.

Before she knew it, were the cuffs back around her wrists and he guided her to a Box with a coat hook so far up that she had to stand on her toes for the Magician to place the chain onto hit. Making it impossible for her to take a Step. Next the cuffed her Ankles together. She gasped as he pulled a rope out of her cleavage. Only for her Face to end a shade redder as he used it to tie up her arms, Legs and waist to the corners of the Box walls she was leaning against.

"So, whats the Trick?" Becky asked as the Magician stepped to the Side. "Right, i usually do this part with a trained Assistant. Its really easy, you get one minute to get yourself of the hook and step out of the Box. If you dont make it in time, will the Wall you are standing against and the one you are looking at meet. Squishing anything that has the misfortune of still being in there." he said and slamed the Door shut to prevent any complaints from reaching the audience.

Becky tried to jump up to free her hands, only to realise that there was no wriggle room for her. Her heart started to Race even faster. She heard the magician marking the thirty seconds mark. She laughed to herself. It was probably just a bad prank she thought. The countdown would hit Zero and he would let her go, to do the actual trick.

In that Moment did her time run out. a Shake went through the Box and Becky got the feeling that the wall was actually coming closer. As she felt it pressing against her chest did she yell out, but it was of no use. the Walls didnt care for her plea to be let out. She took a final breath as the Wall pressed against her Face. She heard a strange crunch before everything around her turned black.

The Magician looked at his wrist watch, acting like he was waiting for a Bus. "Looks like she didnt make it on time." he joked as the walls stopped moving. He stretched his arms and one of the walls moved just enough back that he could grab inside. After a few seconds of searching did he found what he was searching for.

The Audience clapped as they watched a 2D Poster of Becky with Cuffs and Ropes flattened out of the Box. "hmm, she looks rather shocked at her lack of an escape. Well, i have question my dear audience. Now that Becky lost so much weight, do i have three choices and i am not sure which i should pick. 1) I will just restore her, cause she was such a brave volunteer. 2) i am going to use her for my next Promo Poster. I think that would suit her. Or 3) i am going cut her up and a few of you can take a part of her Home."

The Audience started to whisper, while he produced a Scissor to cut of the handcuffs chains and the Sides of the Rope. He could hear that most were against option 3. Soon the Audience also threw option 2 out of the Window. Leaving him only with the choice to restore his lovly Volunteer. He grabbed the Cloth from before and unfolded it a few more times, till it was large enough to cover her whole body.

A few Moments later did a scream came from under the cloth and he pulled it away, revealing a rather shocked Becky. She looked down at herself, covered in cut up Ropes and Cuffs without a chain around her wrist and ankles. "Sorry, i hope it wasnt to tight." he said as he helped her up. She held out her hands to let him unlock the cuffs.

"Now Becky, you can thank the nice Audience for wanting you back." he said and she blew them a sarcastic kiss. "And dear audience, a big Thanks to our lovely Becky for being our brave Volunteer." he said and handed her an intact pair of handcuffs. "In case you want to figure it out on your own." he whispered and sent her Back to the Audience as the Curtain closed.
